Lutman, E.R., Pyle, J.A., Jones, R.L., Lary, D.J., MacKenzie, A.R., Kilbane-Dawe, I., Larsen, N. and Knudsen, B. (1994). Trajectory model studies of ClO_x activation during the 1991/92 northern hemispheric winter. Geophysical Research Letters 21: doi: 10.1029/93GL03045. issn: 0094-8276.

Calculations with a chemical box model along air parcel trajectories between November 1991 to January 1992 show a build up of reactive chlorine in late December and early January, culminating in values of ClOx greater than 2.0 ppbv widespread in the vortex on 9 January 1992. These values are quantitatively comparable to the MLS satellite measurements of ClO. We discuss the chemistry occurring within the vortex, around the vortex edge, and outside the vortex. ¿American Geophysical Union 1994
